Even major things.
So of course, you know, this this is so what's now is called the prime number theorem, which is a cornerstone of all of mathematics, right?
This is the first major result since Euclid on the distribution of primes.
Mm-hmm.
How did Gal say this was X over log X?
I know he had a because he had a really great neural network.
And this happened it happens over and over again.
Like, you know, uh the the Birch Swin and Dye conjecture, which I'm gonna talk about later, uh, which is a is a it's a one of the millennium problems.
And uh it's still open and it's certainly one of the most important problems in mathematics uh of all time.
And this is Birch and Swin and Dye in a basement, you know, in in Cambridge in the 1960s.
They they just plotted ranks and conductors of lit curves.
I'm gonna
define those m uh in more detail later.
Um and they will say, oh, that's kind of interesting.
You know, the rank should be related to the to the conductor in some strange way.
And um and that would that's now the BST conjecture, the person on the diet conjecture.
And what they were doing was computer aided conjectures.
So this is so here was Gauss I the eyeballs of Gauss in the in the nineteenth century.
But the twentieth century really h have seriously computer aided uh conjectures.
And of course the open of the the the proof of this is still open in general.
